Cemetery Of Life
Nominon Lyrics

Deep into the forest upon blackened hill
Beginning a journey into a dark and daunting forest, where one will have to traverse a hill that seems dark and creepy.

Across the cemetery where no one dares go by
The lyrics portrait a cemetery that's scary, people are afraid of even stepping near it, and as such they mostly avoid it.

Beyond the deadly barrier the path continues still
The cemetery has a deadly barrier that people avoid, but there's a path beyond the barrier that leads to an unknown and dangerous destination.

One step can be your last think clear or you'll die
The journey is perilous, as every step could potentially be the last, and one has to be very vigilant to survive.

Yellow eyes glow in the dark evil has you in sight
There are creatures with glowing yellow eyes in the dark places, implying evil lurking there to cause harm to anyone who goes there.

Beware of the swampits it's the path to the unknown
The path has a swamp that people need to be cautious about as it's unfamiliar and can have lots of hidden dangers.

Deep down the demons heart...
The heart of this journey is dark and sinister, alluding to the idea that the trip itself may be cursed.

Cemetery of life
The journey leads to a cemetery, which is full of life in the form of the undead, and one has to be mindful of that danger lurking there.

Buried in darkness, unholy ground
The cemetery is a deeply dark and unholy place, full of evil that's been buried underground.

Rise the night without a sound
The undead rise at night, without making any noise.

Rotten outside, twisted inside
The corpses of the undead are in a disgusting state on the outside, while inside, they're completely twisted and filled with anger and hate.

Obsessed bodies that never really died
The undead are bodies that were never meant to come back to life, and their obsession with fulfilling evil deeds continues even after they've died.

Occult Indian magic ruled centuries ago
Centuries ago, the Indian culture focused on occult magic, which has come back to haunt the world.

Rituals took place to bring re-animation
As part of the occult Indian magic, rituals were carried out to bring the dead back to life as part of the cult's unholy practices.

Dance around the fireplace chant unholy words
To bring the dead back to life, the living danced around the fireplace uttering unholy incantations.

Hail Manitou bring the dead to life
As part of the ritual, the cult members called on the spirit of Manitou to bring the dead to life.

Sacrifice to the evil one to satisfy its need
To appease the evil one, a sacrifice had to be made as part of the ritual.

Sacred souls will die tonight let the serpent bleed
As the sacrifice is made, sacred souls will die as part of the ritual to raise the dead, letting the serpent bleed, likely meaning that life-force energy is being used for this purpose.

Drink the venomous blood...
As part of the ritual, the cult members drank the venomous blood to gain strength, but this also seems to hint at the turning point where the living becomes the undead themselves.

The mighty force is now fulfilled as the ritual is complete
The ritual is complete, and the force that the cult members had called upon is fulfilled.

The moon is full and bright now the dead will see the light
The moon is full and bright, and the undead will now have the strength to rise from their graves, revealing themselves under its light.

Rising from their tombs of death they are the living dead
The undead continue their journey, rising from the graves where they had long been lying dead.

The force grant them eternal life to do its evil deeds
The force that the cult brought to life granted the undead eternal life to carry out evil deeds.

Hatred burns in their eyes you can not run or hide
The undead filled with anger and hate, and one cannot run or hide from them even if they tried.

You realize it's not a dream when hands rip of your flesh
In situations like this, it's easy to believe that everything is a dream, but when undead hands rip the flesh off someone's bones, it becomes evident that it's not.

In the forest depths the heart of death shadows moves and twist
As the undead move forward, the dark shadows in the forest begin to twist and turn, symbolic of the heart of death, and its rule over the area.

They marching out in the world in cover of the mist
As they move out of the cemetery, they seem to be moving under the cover of mist, invisible to anyone who might be watching from afar.
